Dot is a new way of scanning in MRI – a better way. Dot scanning uses a suite of customizable engines. Allowing the user to personalize exams according to patient needs, build in step-by-step user guidance, and automate MRI exams – either "out of the box" or based on the institution's standards.More information about Dot and all of the Dot engines

Gradient System

The combination of our world-class gradients together with Tim+Dot technology enables the most demanding applications.

General Features

Actively shielded (AS), super-compact whole-body gradient coil system

Extremely low eddy currents

Water-cooled coil and amplifier for maximum performance

Excellent spatial and temporal resolution

Shortest TE and TR for high image contrast and best signal-to-noise ratio

Patient-specific shimming

Active shim via 3 linear channels

Includes advanced, nonlinear 2nd order shim

Gradients

V - engine: 30 mT/m

Slew rate

V - engine: 100 T/m/s

RF technology

Proven Tim technology on MAGNETOM ESSENZA allows a maximum number of 46 channels (coil elements) that can be connected simultaneously. The system has 16 independent RF channels that can be used simultaneously in one single scan and in one single FOV, each generating an independent partial image.

Siting and installation

Save up to 25 %3 on the Installation cost with the light-weight, ultra-short Magnet and no need for a separate equipment room

Profit from unique features that are good for your financial health, and for the environment too- Low set-up costs- Low power requirements- Low running costs that may decrease your energy bill by up to 50%1 when replacing an existing MRI system
